Correct answer
Aproportional to absolute temperature

Step-by-step explanation

The average kinetic energy of a molecule of the gas  =32RT.

Average kinetic energy of one molecule of gas =32kT    ( k=RNA)

Where k is Boltzmann constant and T is absolute temperature.

So, from above relation we can say average kinetic energy of molecule is directly proportional to absolute temperature.
